Theory of criticality-enabled symmetry breaking in a class of 1+1D systems
E. S. Andriyakhina, A. S. Shankar, T. Senthil +1
We develop an analytic theory of the recently proposed symmetry breaking at interacting 1+1D Lifshitz quantum critical points. The low-energy theory contains two compact fie…

Josephson wormhole in coupled superconducting Yukawa-SYK metals
Aravindh S. Shankar, Jasper Steenbergen, Stephan Plugge +1
We show that two Yukawa-SYK models with a weak tunneling contact can have an exotic hybrid superconducting thermofield-double-like state that is holographically dual to a traversab…
